IT is not likely that the Virginia I.egiS-
lature will adjourn till some disposition is
made Of the debt II is likely that the
last proposition OF the bondholders will he
accepted on the condition that it he sub
mitted to the people for ratification. The
Richmond Dispatch says:
1--WE again remind the members OF the
legislature that unless they allow the
people to decide for themselves whether
they will or will not accept the best one Of
the propositions made 10y the bondhOlderS,
they will soon have to meet the charge
upon every stump in the Commonwealth,
and from every MALONE paper, that they
were afraid TO trust the people: What
possible objection there can be to allowing
the voters to speak for themselves, we can
not imagine The Democratic party must
be substantially a unit ON the debt ques-
tion, or MALONE will be the next United
States Senator from Virginia"
Virginia is bad enough of with the debt
hanging over her, without having MALONE
saddled upon her again.

SENATOR Ersrrs, the disgruutled states

SENATOR EUsTIs, the disgTuutled states
man from Louisiana, says that mo one
can dcuy that CLEVELAND has broken all
discipline in the Democratic party and
lie says that this is made manifest by the
defeat Of Senator CAMDEN, OF West Yir-
ginia.
The Senator's knowledge of West Nir-
giuia and national politics seems to be
about equally balanced, both lowering
around zero. One of the staunchest DEM
ocrats of tine land has been elected Senator
from West Virginia, and the party in the
State is not in diSorganized and democrat
lied condition by any means. And it we
judge by the reports that come mp from
all sides, the Democracy of the nation is
in the enjoyment of its usual vitality and
discipline and is very well pleased with
President CLEvELNND's manner of run
ming the affairs of this government. Sen
ator EUSTIS is the individual that appears
to be diSOrganized and demOralized.

Proclaim the ties of faith and love, where rancor

And in thoughtless moment smite the Northern
eagles wing;
Come not to me with such theme-l saw those BAN

Above the silent monument wreath of laurel lay,
To twine soldiers sympathy about the fallen Gray,

The men having the Nail Mill En-
terprise in charge have been at work
Increasingly since the beginning Of
Of the work, and succeeded in selling
the greater part Of the lots. We have
before remarked that these lots ought
to have been all sold, long ago. Had
our citizens taken hold with that vim
and energy which characterizes them
in other things, the building for the
big mill would have been up by this
time. Yet the boys were not discour-
aged and have kept the thing going
right along, until but seventy or less
Of the lots remain unsold. That these
will be sold, and the enterprise pushed
to successful completion, there is no
doubt whatever. An indication Of
the manner in which the enterprise is
regarded outside, we give the follow
ing from among a number Of letters
received by the company.

Agreeable to promise made to you

plan proposed. We do this Of course
out of consideration and respect that
we have for the town Of Jackson and
it's enterprising citizens and hope the
enterprise will be a success in every
respect. We would be glad if we
could feel able to take more than the
one lot, but being an old firm here we
are constantly and almost daily called
on to subscribe to various things so
that we are necessarily compelled to
''go slow" We enclose the agreement
signed in duplicate which you will
please have filled up returning the

Free Trade.

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has
largely benefited the consumers, as well
as relieving the burden of home manu-
facturers. Especially is this the case
with Green Aatgatst Floaoer and Boschee's
German Syrup, as the reduction of thirty
six cents per dozen, has been added to in
crease the size of the bottles containing
these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth
more medicine in the 75 cent size. The
AagaGst FlosOer for Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, and the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicine in the
world. The advantage of increased size
of the bottles will be greatly appreciated
by the sick and afflicted, in every town
and village in civilized countries. Sam
pie bottles for 15c remain the same size.

promise to refrain from using musi-

A recent writer in one of the dai-
lies gave the experience Of a manu-
facturer who went to Wichita for the
purpose of investigating as to the
prospects for investing in property.
An advertising agent and professional
boomer offered to sell him ground at
one hundred dollars per front foot.
and was quite independent abont it
but before he left, the agent, on be-
half of the syndicate, offered him one
hundred thousand dollars if he wonld
start a factory, and have the ground
given him. Now, this story is pos
sibly a little overdrawn-but not
much. The first idea Of boomer,
who has "the good of town" at
heart, is to make all possible profits
out Of the scheme. Let a stranger
come to town-a man who knows a
great deal about the value of real es-
estate, yet wants to locate manufac-
turing business, and he is shown no
civilty unless the boomer sees a pros
pect Of plucking him. If he shall
chance to look at a lot worth three
hundred dollars, he is cody informed
that for seven hundred dollars he can
buy it. If he shall locate a plot Of
ground for factory or mill, there is
rush to hem him in or head him off.
There is no evidence Of that public
spirit which draws stranger into the
enjoy ment of the hospitality of the
town. He is not shown all the advanta-
ges Of the town, and introduced to all
the citizens and property holders. On
the other hand he is selected as the VIC
tim Of small gang of gougers and
playedfor the amount they hope to
make out of him
There is, around Jackson, beauti-
fnl stretch of country for extending
the town, even to the extent of ma
king it goodly city. There is no
sufficient reason why it should not be
such. The only present reason is that
the spirit manifested by the famous
'Three London tailors" is permitted
to prevail. "We, the people Of Jack
son" seems to mean very little, in the
way Of progress. The men who pos
sess means and business capacity are
not making themselves ridiculous over
the condition of things. A scheme
for the good of the town ought not
to be one week reaching completion
in this place. But the policy has been
to advance ten words in argument for
some scheme, and hundred words in
an attack upon some business already
established. The people can easily
read an impure motive. If we are
working for the good Of the town, we
will pull together, and make the
schems successful. If we are not the
scheme will fail. There is nothing
palmer than this. A town divided
against itself cannot boom. That
might as well be understood.

There was a convention of the Cos
pei Temperance forces at Columbus
last week, at which committee was
appointed to prepare an address to the
people Of the State There is to be
no letting up on the Temperance work,
and the internal drink traffic will be
pushep to the wall. No matter how
much men may differ as to methods
or details, the one central idea Of
crushing out the drink demon will be
uppermost in the minds of true Tenn
perance people. If any political party
joins heartily in earnest Temperance
reform work, it is good. If any po-
litical party shall attempt to retard the
work, down goes that party. 1t may
not be this year, but it will be soon,
in case any party should be so foolish.
The people of Ohio have about reach
ed the point where nonsense ends, and
serious work begins, on this point.
